Comments from Pilot Study Nurses:

  • “I found the textbook very good – easy to read and timely/relevant content. I work in geriatric care management and I will recommend this book to my coworkers.”
  • “The chapter on neurocognitive disorders was excellent. I am sharing the book with my staff developer so we can do some additional training (for) our staff.”
  • “I think the book is very comprehensive and thorough. A great resource for nurses as well as ‘regular people.’ As an aging baby-boomer, I was able to apply the information personally, an added bonus.”
  • “I recommend it for any nurse in any setting. There is practically no setting other than peds that would not be able to apply this information."
  • "This course is current and very informative."
  • “Pertinent to current population in health care. Makes some very relevant points.”
  • “Great text, easy to read. I learned some new assessment and interventions in caring for the elderly. They translate well into also caring for my father who is 79 this year!”
